performance art is the worst thing to happen to art as far as history can tell us. What complete and utter shit.

Wonderful performance. To see a butoh protest of art censorship check out Whiteout: Butoh for BLU on Vimeo.

it's the perfect dance for a disco
-
each movement is apart of a long and fluid meditation for him... wow.... i dont think that a technically advanced modern dancer could have accomplished this... it isnt just about the movements and the choreography.... its about being fully concious and fully present in the NOW.... deep

shadow plays a very interesting complementary role in this performance

it's becouse this is a dance for the bones, they say that in butoh dance you're dancing the corpse, the dead body.. or something like that.. i't very beautyful actually, not using your muscules, or using them in a very low rate.. i'm takin' some classes of it, it's not like any other dance i know.. altough, rather alike the afro movements..
-

-
whatever.... this is ffucking ggay.... (notice i added a word for each, so ya'll can read it, ahhahaa)

I'm studying this kind of Theatre in Drama right now, I think it's very interesting, creepy, though :P

too slow in the beginning, my mind wandered off right away. the thing with abstract art is that everyone has a different take on the meaning of it. but then is there any meaning at all? no one knows what the artist is thinking or trying to portray. the piece of art is just something that catches your mind and then lets your mind explore a certain realm of thoughts. personally, abstract art is not the way i like to stimulate my mind. to each their own.
